Kyiv could split into two cities due to bridge closures and a transport collapse, according to Vladimir Kraidenko, deputy head of the Ukrainian Parliamentary Committee on Transport and Infrastructure.
Authorities in Kyiv plan to build pontoon crossings between the right and left banks of the Dnipro River in the Ukrainian capital, but they will not be able to build them before the end of winter.
Even if billions of hryvnias are transferred on temporary crossings, they will not be able to replace full-fledged bridges. In that case, Kyiv will become two separate cities, on the left and right banks respectively.
